David Fishburn (the plugin author) does read this mailing list, so he might be able to give some more pointers. I use dbext every day to speak to Microsoft SQL Server and MySQL, and it works really well. I learned to use the plugin by reading the accompanying documentation. The documentation could maybe do with a bit of restructuring, but I had little trouble getting set up. This is my string for defining a profile in my vimrc (I have about 8 of them): let g:dbext_default_profile_dev_mysql = 'type=MYSQL:user=root:passwd=012345:dbname=dev:host=localhost:extra=-t' I got it by copying the MySQL example string from the documentation. Note that the name that will appear when you execute <leader>sbp is determined by the part of the global variable name following "g:dbext_default_profile_" If you can be more specific about what you're having trouble with, I can try to assist.
